Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

badgers
Rock badgers are small animals also called hyraxes that live in the cracks between rocks in the wilderness. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of animal, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “Small mammals that living among rocks”

people
See how you translated the same use of people in the previous verse.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
בַסֶּ֣לַע בֵּיתָֽם
in/on/at/with,rocks homes,their
Although house and the cliff are singular, they refer to these things in general. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. Alternate translation: “their houses in the cliffs”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
בֵּיתָֽם
homes,their
Here, Agur refers to the places where Rock badgers live as if those places were houses like humans live in. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “their dwelling places” or “their holes”
